At this time, the Diocesan Chancellor has wavered the requirement for notices to be displayed prior to authorisation of applications for the reservation of grave spaces. However we are required to publicly list any notices through our various media forms. Please note the following:-
Holy Innocents Church, Gt. Barton & St. Peter's Church, Thurston will be open again for individual private prayer on Wednesday, 29th July and Saturday, 1st August from 2-4pm. We regret that only the South aisles will be accessible to limit the cleaning that needs to be done. The toilets will remain locked for the time being. Please use the hand sanitizer provided on entering and leaving the church. If you are planning to visit the church but have any symptoms or are isolating, you need to stay at home and postpone your visit.

New Parish Giving Scheme Telephone ServiceThe PGS has launched a new telephone service for parishes. May it be of real benefit for all who use it in these difficult times. It is designed to enable prospective donors to set up a regular Direct Debit gift over the phone, donors can telephone: 0333 002 1271, lines are open Monday to Friday, between 9.00 – 5.00pm. PGS is a multi-diocesan approach to serving parishes with a professional donation management and Gift Aid service which combats the challenge of static giving by allowing donors to increase their giving in line with inflation. For more information about the scheme please visit our website. www.cofesuffolk.otg/stewardship/parish-giving.
